  		<p>MyFeed isn't just another website. MyFeed let's you collect your RSS feed and keeps you up-to-dated about your favourite topics around the web. Just keep on reading this guide to know how! </p>
	    <p class="top_link"><a href="#top">Top</a></p>
	</li>
	<li><h3 id="arg_firstAcc">First Access</h3>
	    <ol>
		<li><h4 id="arg_signup">Sign Up</h4>
		    <p>We need some of your personal info to make you part of MyFeed communty. Fulfil all the fields in the <a href="../xml/signup.xml">sign up page</a>, get yourself a username and a safe password and remember them. We will ask you these information when you want to read your collected feeds. This is for autentication and for your security. If you're not sure that your password is secure enough, try <a href="http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1537" title="external link" >visit this link</a> for some advices.</p>
		    <p class="top_link"><a href="#top">Top</a></p>
		</li> 
		<li><h4 id="arg_subscribe">Subscribe a feed</h4>
		    <p>When you join our community, you have no feed subscribed. So don't worry if your feedspage is empty. You have to subscribe to some feed first! To do that, get to subscription page and fill the text field with a link to a website that could have some RSS or put a direct link to the RSS feed. If you don't know how to do it, visit our <a href="RSS_info.html">RSS help page</a>. If the url you entered has some RSS associated, you will see the title of the feed and a selection of which feed you want to subscribe to. Choose it and finally subscribe. If everything goes well, you'll see a confirm message and the new feed will appear in your feedspage.</p>
		    <p class="top_link"><a href="#top">Top</a></p>
		</li> 
		<li><h4 id="arg_navigateFeeds">Navigate your feeds</h4>
		    <p>Now that you have subscribed to some RSS, it's time you keep up to date! In your feedspage you'll initially see a list of names: that's the list of your feeds. When you click on one of them, all it's items (blog posts, news or whatever that feeds contains...) will appear after few seconds (this is the time needed for your brower to connect to the source of hte RSS).</p>
		    <p>Now that all the item have appeared, you can select one of them the same way you selected the feeds before. It will suddenly appear the description of the item you selected. <em>Notice that many RSS feeds don't contain all the contents of the feed: sometimes they contain only few words that summarize the real content of the article. To get the full content, click on the link to full post, just under the post title.</em> </p>

	</li>
	<li><h3 id="arg_issues">Common Operations</h3>
		
	    <ol>
		<li><h4 id="arg_subscribe_new">Subscribe a new feed</h4>
		    <p>To subscribe a new RSS feed, click the "Add Feed" button.</p>
		    <p>You'll enter a page with a textfield: put the URL of the page you want to keep yourself up to dated or a direct link to an RSS feed. Sometime is not easy to identify if a web page has RSS feeds or not. Visit our RSS help page, section "Where to find RSS?" to know better how to discover the presence of RSS feeds.</p>
		    <p>Once you press the "Check URL" button, if everything goes well, the title of the page and the available feeds in that page will appear just under the textfield (the button will disappear). Check if the informations you see are correct and select which feed you want to subscribe to. Insert a name for your new subscription: this is very important because this new feed will be recognized with this name in every future operation. Then press the subscribe button or, if there were errors, abort your subscription to start again from the beginning. </p>
		    <p class="top_link"><a href="#top">Top</a></p></li>
		<li><h4 id="arg_delete">Delete a subscritpion</h4>
		    <p>To delere a RSS feed subscription, click the "Delete Feed" button.</p>
		    <p>While in the delete feed page, you'll see a table: each row represents one feeds. Checking the checkbox next to the name of a feed means you want to delete that feed. You can select multiple feeds to delete in one time. To apply the modifications you want, that is to delete the feeds you selected, click on the "Delete Selected" button just under the table. If you want to reset the table, click on "Reset" button. Once you delete a feed, there is no way to undo modifications but to subscribe that feed again. </p>
		    <p class="top_link"><a href="#top">Top</a></p></li>
		<li><h4 id="arg_manage">Manage your subscriptions</h4>
		    <p>To manage your subscriptions, click on the "Manage Feeds" button.</p>
		    <p>There are four operations you can accomplish in this page. Let's explain them:</p>
		    <dl>
		    	<dt id="create">Create Group</dt>
		    		<dd>First of all, let's define a group: <strong>a group is a way you can collect feeds in one entity to organize them and to make easy to find them when you are browsing. </strong> To create a group, simply put the name for the group you want to create in the textfield you see and click the "Create Group" button. The group will then be created empty: to fulfill the group with some of your feeds, go to the "organize your feeds" section.</dd>
		    	<dt id="change">Change Group Name</dt>
		    		<dd>To change a group name, first select which group you want to change the name of and then put the new name in the textfield. Once you click "Change Group Name", the name of the group will be changed. The feeds inside that group will remain there unchanged.</dd>
		    	<dt id="delete">Delete Group</dt>
		    		<dd>To delete a group, simply select his name in the selection box and then click the "Delete Group Button". <strong>Note: You can delete a group only if it is empty!</strong> To move the feeds between groups, go to the "Organize your feeds" section.</dd>
		    	<dt id="organize">Organize your feeds</dt>
		    		<dd>In this part you can change the position of a feed between groups. In the table you see, each row represents a feed. Next to the name of the feed there is a selection box where you can select the name of the group you want to move your feed to (there obviously isn't the name of the group the feed belongs to). You can do multiple operations at the same time, that is you can change more than one feed position before clicking teh "Move Selected" button just under the table to apply modifications.</dd>
